2. Real-time Current:
   The real-time current(amp) of the connected device.

3. Power Factors:
   The power factors of the connected device.

Mode 5: Time/Minimum Power Display
Under this mode, user could know the minimum power(watt) recorded of the connected appliances during the using period.

1. Running Time :
   The total time that the connected device operate.
   After 24hours, the “Day” display will automatically plus 1.

2. Minimum Power(watt):
   The minimum power(watt) recorded of the connected appliances during the running period.

Mode 6: Time/Maximum Power Display
Under this mode, user could know the maximum power(watt) recorded of the connected appliances during the using period.

1. Running Time :
   The total time that the connected device operate. After 24hours, the “Day” display will automatically plus 1.

2. Maximum Power(watt):
   The maximum power(watt) recorded of the connected appliances during the running period.

Mode 7: Time/ Unit Price Display
Under this mode, user could set the electricity unit price ( cost/KWh), eg. 00.68 £/KWh, like figure 7.

1. Running Time :
   The total time that the connected device operate.
   After 24hours, the “Day” display will automatically plus 1.

2. Unit Electricity Price: The unit electricity price(£) you set.

Steps to set the price below

Step1:
Enter the mode 7 by Pressing the “FUNCTION” Button about 7 times, could just press the “COST” button to enter the mode straightly.
Step2:
Set the price by long pressing the “COST” button about 4s till you see the icon 0:00 COST/KWh flashes.
Step3:
Adjust the price by pressing the “FUNCTION” button, press the “UP” and “DOWN” button to adjust the number up and down.
NOTE:
Press once to adjust the first number, press again to adjust the next number.
Step4：
Finish the setting by pressing the “COST” button.
Overload Warning Display
When the power of the connected appliances exceeds 3680W or 16A, there will a warning “Overload” shows in the 2ed line of the LCD screen.
Like the figure 8.

Attention

1. With built-in battery, for the first time use or not used for a long time, you may need plug it into a socket for battery charging.
2. If the LCD screen shows abnormal or the function keys can’t work after press, you could use the pin included in the package to press the “RESET” button to reset the power meter.
3. Regarding the “Time” display, initially the LCD screen shows 0:00. After electrical appliances connected, the time will be displayed as minutes and seconds, eg. 5:50(which means 5mins and 50s). After 10mins past, the time will be displayed as 4 numbers, eg, 11.50(which means 11 mins and 50s). Then after  60mins past, the time will be displayed as hours, minutes and seconds, eg. 1:50(which means 1 hr and 50mins). After 24 hours past, the time will be displayed as originally 0:00, meanwhile the “Day” display will automatically plus 1.
